The western price cap on Russian oil goes into effect today. Under this, the nation will no longer be allowed to deliver oil at a price more than 60 dollars per barrel. Moscow has rejected the move and said it is analysing the agreement between&nbsp;the EU, G7 and Australia. In the meantime, the nation said that it will stop supplies to the EU, adding that it is confident it will find buyers. In other news, Iranian state media has seemingly denounced reports that the country's 'morality police' has been abolished. This comes as top Iranian officials have repeatedly said Tehran would not change the Islamic Republic's mandatory hijab policy.
